Preserve

 
 
 

Located in the heart of California’s agricultural region, Preserve is both my favorite neighborhood restaurant as well as a NorCal destination. Artful food and surroundings tickle the palate as much as Penelope, the resident cat, will tease your affections. Be sure to put the charming town of Winters on your list.   

**Special note: Not all is happy with my ensemble because my source for the silk blouse, a beloved boutique, is out of business. We can't afford to lose more locally owned, independent shops. Remember, they support you with unique goods, quality service, jobs, taxes, charitable contributions, local culture ...

 

Yvonne

 
 
 

This is my store. At least it should be. For almost 30 years, Yvonne has been responsible for the majority of my wardrobe. From casual to resort, business to special events, this boutique has you covered (or uncovered if you take advantage of the stunning lingerie). Stay current with timeless classics and save money in the long run. With most of my pieces still in rotation after several years, Yvonne is a viable solution to more sustainable fashion.
